todd1984 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Why is the indoor temperature of the camp office at -3℃? And other indoor temperatures above zero? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mixxut Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 There are a lot of indoor areas with negative temperature because.... Well I'm pretty sure that I don't need to explain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looper Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Not to mention unisolated outdoor caves. It would be so cool if indoor temperature varied over day and night to warrant indoor fires to keep warm sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajb1978 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 My take on it is, all those propane tanks all over the place...well they aren't actually empty. When people fled their homes, they turned the thermostat way down. If you notice, houses generally are just slightly above freezing. Just warm enough to keep the pipes from freezing. The camp office on the other hand doesn't have a propane tank though, so...I dunno. Maybe it's just designed really, really well, and traps solar heat like magic.

Nogen Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 In fact, indoor temperature for a structure that have not been heated for a extended period of time should be almost as low as outside temperature. Could have a couple of degree over, because of the heat coming from the ground/basement that is entrapped in the building and a little by greenhouse effect from the windows during sunny day. But realistically speaking, an unheated indoor when it's -25°C outside won't be at 2°C, but more or less at -20°C depending of different factors. But hey, it's a game!

dead frozen dude Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 The Garage at Quonset is -6o C or so I think, are there any indoor places colder than that? Way too low to stay and sleep when you're still in your starter duds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
